NOTICEABLE EFFECTS OF PHOSPHATE.
Where some strips through u grain
field are left unfertilized with phos-
plate or other concentrated
they often appear as if actually stunted
by the larger growth on either side.
This is often probably the fact. The
fertilizer in close contact with the
seed gives it such a vigorous start that
its roots encroach on the unmanurcd
soil, from which they drain part of the
too scanty supply. The small amounts
of these concentrated fertilizers used
show that it does not need a great
quantity Of manure to give a crop a
good send-otf when it is applied in con-
with the seed. The same amount
of fertilizers spread over the entire sur
face would make much less show.
though before the season was over the
roots might, and probably would, reach
most of it.

SKIM MILK FOR cows.

There are many times in butter dair-
les where the most profitable use of
skinned milk is to feed it again to the
cow which has given it. The milk.
after the cream has been taken from it.,
retains the elements that most COWS
find deficient in their food. With plen-
ty OF grass the COW can easily supply
the carbon or fat forming elements of
her milk, provided she can get the
caseine and albuminous portions which
the skim-milk furnishes. 1t is the
drain of these that hurts COWS most,
and they should be supplied, if not in
the skim-milk, then in some other food
equally nutritious.

CHANGING HORSES COATS.

tHaNbINp liDlISES toAfS.
While horses are shedding their
coats they should be well fed and not
overworked. 1t is important to have
the new coat on before active farm
work begins, as the changing process
is facilitating. Thorough grooming
at this time is very important, and
there should at all times be work
enough to prevent the muscles from be-
coming weakened by disuse. Unless
horses have some work in winter the
fat they then put on will do them little
good, besides the certainty that the
shoulders will gall when the horses are
put to hard pulling.
THE AVERAGE NUMBER OF EGGS.
There 365 days in a year, and OF
that number we must deduct 100 DAYS
as the melting period, as it usually re.
quires about three months for a hen to
shed her feathers and put on new ones.
We then have 265 days left. As no hen
can lay an egg every day, it is appar.
ent that the hen that lays 200 eggs in a
year cannot stop to do much work in
Matching; she must not become SICK,
and she cannot afford to lose any time.
II a hen lays ten dozen eggs a year
(l20) she very nearly lays one every
other day, and if she does that and
raises a brood she is performing good
work. For IL flock, where good layers
and inferior layers are together, we
should not be disappointed if tire hens
averaged 100 eggs each and raised
broods.
THE BEST SEEDS FoR PROPAGATION.
Nursery men are well aware that
seeds of the best and choicest apples
are not best for planting. All that is
this is best secured by planting seeds
of the small, inferior varieties, too
poor for anything except making cider.
These are generally used not alone be-
cause they are the best. If we wished
fruit from these seedlings only seeds
! from the best favored varieties would
be planted; but as the progator invar-
iablv gratis these, then the kind of
fruit the Seeding might bear is imma-
terial. The chief drawback to this
method of getting trees IS that it gives
little opportunity for valuable chance
seedlings which used sometimes to be
obtained. Perhaps. however, it is as
well that improved varieties of fruits
should be bred. for by selecting seeds
from the choicest kinds. and by cross
fertilization, much improved stock is
bred. This will make two kinds Of
seeds, each best for its respective pur-
poe, one including the great bulk of
seeds from inferior fruit for producing
stocks, and the other the carefully Sc
lected few seeds for the amateur and
specialist seeking new varieties.
KEEPING FERTILIZERS IN STOCK,
Team help is too valuable at seeding
{ 0 stop the team and take a mans time
for a day to draw a load of phosphate

TO GROW STRAWBERRIES.
The main points involved in the suc-
cessful culture of this fruit, as rccog-
nized by II best cultivators. are as
follows:
l.. Prepare the ground by deep plow-
ing and subsoiling; apply a dressing of
rotted manue equal to twenty cords
per acre; spread it over the ground
and mix with the surface soil by re-
peated and thorough disintegration
with a harrow. The best crops are
produced on strong, loamy soils; if
somewhat clayey it will be all the bet
ter, provided it is drained.
2. Give the plants plenty of space.
The rows should not be less than thirty
